Awesome Games Done Quick 2018 ends with a donation record high

Awesome Games Done Quick (AGDQ) 2018 had its run from January 7-14, 2018, featuring the best speedrunners for different consoles and games. While donations are still open after the event has already concluded, AGDQ 2018 has set for itself another record high.

The event has garnered a whopping US$2,269,179.96 from more than 44000 donors. More than 130 donors have pledged at least US$1000 or more during the course of the event. The total donation amount has bested AGDQ’s previous record by at least US$40,000. All the proceeds will go to Prevent Cancer Foundation, the only US non-profit organization dedicated to cancer prevention and early detection.

If you’re interested, the AGDQ subreddit has a list of timestamps of all the speedruns done during the week, along with their corresponding links to the Twitch streams. As of this posting, the AGDQ is still updating their Youtube channel of all the speedrun recordings.

GDQ’s next event will be Summer Games Done Quick, happening on June 24-July 1, 2018.
